Wei Qing spoke up. Obviously other than s.h.i.+ Lei, he was under the spotlight. 

Chen Shao obviously had to root for s.h.i.+ Lei. As to that guy who begged for pity, he couldn’t even remember who he was, so why did he have to give him face? 

In silence and rigidness, Wu Haoyuan didn’t even know how he went back in his car. 

He only knew that all the friends he invited drove behind the Koenigsegg, which was barely driving at the speed of 20km/h. The cars s.h.i.+ Lei brought also followed and with a blank mind, he started the engine of the usually cool b.u.mblebee in Wu Dong university, but in this situation, it seemed like a taxi, and he was escorted up the mountains by the Porsche 911 and McLaren P1. 

Wu Haoyuan knew that there was no escape. 

“But, he could be escorted by two supercars over 20 million, isn’t that a honor?” This was said by s.h.i.+ Lei who was driving the Maserati, to Sun Yiyi. 

Sun Yiyi giggled, but followed by concern and said: “s.h.i.+tou ge, are you really telling Wu Haoyuan to swim naked?” 

s.h.i.+ Lei smiled. He replied as he drove: “Depends. But today’s really cold, he’ll probably lose his life from swimming in the lake. But, I’ll still have to do something. Don’t worry, I won’t go overboard, I just need to make sure that he’ll stay away from me in Wu Dong university.”

Sun Yiyi nodded. It was not that she could not bare to see what’s about to happen, but more concerned with potential incidents. 

Quickly, they reached the top of the mountain. There were groups of hikers who were astonished at this sight and all took photos of it. As s.h.i.+ Lei saw that, he was slightly worried that if any of those people posted the pictures on WeChat or Weibo, wouldn’t that make things chaotic? 

No one was next to Lake Cui as it was a bleak day, adding a group of luxurious cars, a few people who wanted to see all stood far away from them. People were afraid. Although it was normal for them to swear and curse at wealthy people who show off how rich they were, but when they saw that in real life, they couldn’t just blame that these people were driving cars close to a billion to get through the winter as it was none of their business. 

After the cars stopped, the people inside also stepped down. Wu Haoyuan looked at those people with foolish expressions. Seeing that they were all demonstrating their excitement, he could not help but scream internally. Was it really fun to watch someone swim naked in the middle of winter? 

Even Wu Haoyuan’s friends did not felt sympathetic towards him. Although they were not delighted to see Wu Haoyuan’s misfortune, but Wu Haoyuan had dragged them into the drama. Wanting to compete for who’s the wealthiest with billionaires like this, did you think your life was too long? Hence, none of them pitied Wu Haoyuan. They also planned to never have any kind of connections with Wu Haoyuan ever again after they leave the mountain today. If s.h.i.+ Lei did not let Wu Haoyuan go and made him do the bet, Wu Haoyuan probably won’t have the face to appear in their circle anymore. 

At this time, Wu Haoyuan couldn’t care less about his reputation. He dashed two steps forward and knelt down in front of s.h.i.+ Lei. He slapped himself in the face roughly and cried: “s.h.i.+ Shao, you are a broadminded adult, please let me go this time, I won’t do this again!” 

s.h.i.+ Lei remained unmoved whilst Sun Yiyi held onto s.h.i.+ Lei’s arms tightly, hiding half of her body behind s.h.i.+ Lei. 

Wu Haoyuan slapped himself again: “s.h.i.+ Shao, please let me go on this, just pretend I’m a fart and you just let me out! I’m a toad, I’m a frog sitting at the bottom of the well, I’m too blind to see your greatness……” One slap after another, Wu Haoyuan was really harsh on himself and finger marks tainted his face. 

Wei Qing and the rest all crossed their arms and watched this scene with interest. To be honest, they thought that the bet was a bit too much. It was not a family grudge or anything like that, did he have to go all out? But, they came today because of this, and the person directly involved in it was s.h.i.+ Lei so they did not want to b.u.t.t into his business. If there was some fun to watch, then they will, if not, they would just be slightly disappointed. 

s.h.i.+ Lei finally spoke. 

“If your face swells from slapping, you won’t be good looking anymore!” 

Wu Haoyuan slapped himself roughly a few more times. If kowtow worked, he would have done so. 

“But, Wu Haoyuan, if I lost today, do you think you would let me go so easily?” 

s.h.i.+ Lei’s words were as if he had thrown Wu Haoyuan’s heart into an ice cellar as his own body froze. He didn’t take off his clothes, and he was yet in the water, but he felt that his lips were purple. 

“Today’s lower than 10°C right? It’s early for winter swims because the water’s not cold enough. It’s getting a bit late and I’m hungry. I want to eat and drink to warm myself up.” 

As he said that, Wu Haoyuan suddenly saw a glimpse of hope as he raised his head and looked at s.h.i.+ Lei with tear filled eyes. The chilly wind swept past them and Wu Haoyuan almost wanted to make s.h.i.+ Lei his best friend. 

But to Wei Qing and the rest, it was a shame. Indeed, making Wu Haoyuan swim in this weather would definitely blow things out of proportion, but didn’t they come in vain if the bet was cancelled? That’s so boring. They all came for this in the first place. 

s.h.i.+ Lei scanned the expressions of those around him and beamed: “How about this, you need to do the bet, except we can forget about swimming naked, you are not Sun Yang or Ning Zekai(1), and we don’t really want to watch someone who doesn’t have a nice body to swim naked for so long. You will go to the lake, take off all your clothes and stand in the water for ten seconds, then you just have to come up and scream that you are an idiot three times!” 

Wu Haoyuan‘s face was as pale as a ghost. Wei Qing and the rest thought it was rather interesting as they all laughed. Even Wu Haoyuan’s friends also imagined what was about to happen, although they didn’t laugh, but their faces were distorted from trying to fight back their smiles. 

“Hurry up, don’t make me change my mind. I’m hungry. The earlier you finish, the earlier I can eat. Oh, come with us later, too. Have a hot shower inside and have some food. I don’t want to be sued if you are frozen to death!” 

s.h.i.+ Lei’s words completely threw Wu Haoyuan into despair and he no longer thought that he could fluke it. Facing against fuerdai who treat 7 million yuan cars like the Lamborghini Aventador as appetizers, he really didn’t have any will to fight back. 

As they watched Wu Haoyuan walk step by step towards Lake Cui as if he was on the execution grounds, s.h.i.+ Lei turned to Wei Qing and Wu Haoyuan’s friends and said: “No one take photos, ok? This really isn’t something memorable.” 

Everyone laughed merrily yet Wu Haoyuan thought that every step he took pa.s.sed through their worlds. 

Finally, he was on the bank of the lake. He took out his clothes slowly one by one, hoping that s.h.i.+ Lei would change his mind. 

Except, all he heard was the only girl’s excited call from Wei Qing’s group: “Hurry up and take it off! At this speed, are you waiting for New Year to come?” 

Wu Haoyuan made up his mind and quickly took off all his clothes. Although everyone was standing behind him, but he covered his private part with his hands and dipped his toe into the lake to check the temperature of the water. 

“So cold!” Wu Haoyuan didn’t even know how he went into the water, but he knew that the water was unexpectedly warmer than on the bank. 

s.h.i.+ Lei asked Wu Haoyuan’s friends: “Who has a towel inside their car? Prepare it for him!”
